✦ Synopsis

The mechanism for intracell transport based on the ID motion of certain proteins along the cytoskeleton microtubular fibres. substantiated by recent experimental biological research, is analysed from the perspective of a non-equilibrium thermodynamical model which incorporates an internal protein degree of freedom. The role of resonances between internal and external length scales in the mechanism functioning is succintly analysed from the perspective of the cell-biological potentialities of the model.

The response of a heat exchanger tube, under the excitation of an experimentally determined nonlinear fluid force field, has been simulated via a two-degree-of-freedom analytical model for a rotated triangular array of cylinders ( \(P / D=1 \cdot 375\) ) using an explicit time integration algorithm.
